a.k.a. Marc Ecko's Chopping Up
http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/856/856254p1.html
March 3, 2008 - Tomorrow, Showtime Networks and Marc Ecko Entertainment will announce that they have partnered up to create an all-new videogame based on the popular award-winning show, Dexter. Though a specific development team has yet to be named, Ecko Entertainment has said that it will work closely with Showtime to keep the game as faithful to the television show as possible.
"Dexter is the extremely rare TV show with enough layers of action and tension to translate perfectly into a compelling videogame," said Marc Fernandez, Vice President of Marc Ecko Entertainment. "Our game designers, writers, and artists are going to give Dexter's morally complex world the kind of interactivity that gamers will love."
A favorite show among several editors at the IGN offices, and winner of our award for Best Television Show of 2007, Dexter tells the story of title character Dexter Morgan -- a blood spatter expert in the Miami police department who moonlights as a serial killer who hunts down and dispatches other murderers.
The series, which has also won Emmy and AFI awards, is based on author Jeff Lindsay's series of books that have seen three novels so far: Darkly Dreaming Dexter, Dearly Devoted Dexter, and Dexter in the Dark.
Plot details, developer info (it isn't Human Head, which is working with Marc Ecko Entertainment on a separate project) and gameplay specifics are expected to appear over the next several months.
A release date and specific platforms have not yet been confirmed.
